1. Elias Steals Ziggler’s Jokes

Dolph Ziggler might be the wrestler who does standup comedy, but Elias was funny as hell Monday night.

Elias took a great swipe at the Dallas Cowboys (which this Philadelphia Eagles fan greatly appreciates), and then he was interrupted by Lio Rush, which is when things took off. Rush started running down Elias, only for the troubadour to cut him off and ask, “Whose kid is this? What kind of irresponsible parent lets their child go to run on the ramp?”

It sparked genuine laughter from the crowd, and he doubled down, asking for security to take Rush to the lost and found section so he could be claimed. Of course, Lio wasn’t lost, and he had a delivery to make in the form of Bobby Lashley.

Seriously though, Elias was on fire Monday night, providing some solid entertainment.
